BIM / VDC Consulting
Clash, energy, as-builts, families. The adjacent work that sits alongside production.
Outside of straight production support, we operate a dedicated BIM/VDC consulting line. These are the projects where the scope is bounded but the expertise needs to be deep. One-off engagements that improve how the rest of your team works. Custom Dynamo scripts to automate repetitive modeling and documentation tasks, enforce naming conventions, validate model standards, and batch-process Revit families and parameters across large project sets.

- Point-cloud-to-model workflows
Allocated. Hourly. Fixed-Fee.
Most bim / vdc consulting work runs as an Allocated Resource (dedicated seat, monthly) or Project Hourly (per-project, NTE budget). One-off scopes commonly run fixed-fee.
Most engagements touch more than one.
